[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are another family of 4 doing very well on less than $100k. I make about $90k. My husband has an income of under $10k. He also takes care of the kids. We are frugal but we still eat out regularly, have a new car, go on overseas vacations and regular weekend trips. We have a good life. We own an 1800 sq foot 3 bed row house in DC, with a 15 minutes commute (by foot) to my downtown office.[/quote] Could you explain your spending please? Not being snarky, seriously want to learn from you. We have a HHI of $130,000 and have 10- 13 year old cars, rarely go on any vacation, rare weekend trips and only if we're staying with friends or somewhere for $100 a night, have zero college fund and too often have to dig into savings in between paychecks. Eating out, having a new car and overseas vacations aren't what I think of as frugal. I like your way of being frugal better. :) Please teach me your ways.[/quote]
